Hugai Blue Decorative Box, Set of 2

These boxes are particularly well-suited for coastal homes. The MDF frame is a preferred material in humid environments because it is more resistant to the expansion and contraction that can cause solid wood to warp. Furthermore, the mother-of-pearl shell is a marine-derived material that naturally complements the salt-air aesthetic of beachfront or coastal properties, though we recommend keeping them in climate-controlled indoor spaces to ensure long-term durability.

Collectively weighing 6.7 lbs, these boxes have a substantial, high-quality feel that prevents them from sliding easily on smooth surfaces. While the MDF frames provide excellent structural integrity, the mother-of-pearl shell inlay is a delicate natural material. For homes with active pets or small children, we suggest placing these boxes on stable surfaces like a mantel or high shelf where they can be admired as art pieces while remaining safe from accidental drops.

Absolutely. This set of two is designed for both form and function, making them ideal for hiding everyday clutter like remote controls, mail, or keys on a coffee table or console. The large box measures 14"L x 9"W x 4.5"H and the smaller box measures approximately 12"L x 7"W x 3.8"H, offering versatile storage capacities that help maintain a sense of order while acting as a sophisticated statement piece.

This set is constructed with durable MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard) frames, which provide a stable, warp-resistant foundation. This core is then meticulously adorned with genuine mother-of-pearl shells in an elegant brick pattern. This combination ensures that the boxes remain sturdy and maintain their shape over time, while the shimmering shell inlay provides a high-end, organic aesthetic that captures the natural elegance of the sea.

To preserve the natural luster of the mother-of-pearl, we recommend dusting the surfaces regularly with a soft, dry cloth. For light cleaning, you may use a cloth slightly dampened with mild soap and water, but it is essential to avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as these can strip the shell’s iridescent finish. Based on our expertise with delicate accents, keeping these pieces out of prolonged, direct sunlight will also help prevent the natural tones from fading.

For a balanced and intentional design, we recommend styling these boxes using the "rule of three" or by layering them to create varying heights. You can stack the smaller box on top of the larger one to create a tiered display on a bookshelf, or place them side-by-side on a coffee table alongside a taller vase or candle holder. The smoky blue and opalescent pearl tones work beautifully as a focal point when paired with neutral or navy blue decor.
